About
Lloyd A. Taylor’s research lies at the intersection of human-robot interaction, healthcare technology, and behavior change, with a focus on designing socially assistive robots for vulnerable populations. His most cited work, a qualitative study on motivational interviewing delivered by a robot (85 citations), explores how robotic systems can replicate therapeutic dialogue to support behavior change—a foundational contribution to the field of social robotics. Taylor also investigates the use of robots in dementia care, as demonstrated by his study on the robot Stevie in a day center for people with dementia (12 citations), which assesses staff perceptions of acceptability and engagement. Additionally, his work on technologies to support movement assessment during video consultations (15 citations) addresses critical challenges in remote physical rehabilitation. Through these studies, Taylor advances the practical deployment of robots in clinical and care settings, emphasizing user experience and real-world applicability. His research has significant implications for aging populations and remote healthcare, positioning him as a key contributor to the development of empathetic, effective robotic assistants.
